The more the merrier,
I think this years NC topped out at 520 ish entries. Lets see that be even bigger in 2012. I think it could happen with the race setup it sounds like will be used. Doesn't mean 520ish racers though. Still I think the entry count could be better than this years.
The wow factor for me is the 3 track setup, with 3 different scales all running at the same event. They are shooting for the stars and then some. Can't wait to see what "The Dirt" crew comes up with for all of that.

Its gonna be sweet that there wont be as much down time this year. With 3 tracks running it should make the program move faster. How many times can you clean and check your junk? Man its going to be a blast! The locals will have a tent city set-up all the way to the left of the track near the water truck, so come and say hello. My tent is the one that says Bad Ass MotherFuc***......

Jaz,
I agree that the program should move at a faster pace, not that's it not fast already. Should be fun. It's either going to work so well that they'll keep the 3 track format for years to come or be a little too difficult to keep track of (pun intended). I hope for the fore mentioned. It's a pretty rare thing to have mulitable tracks at one venue let alone run those tracks at the same event. If it works the way I hope it will, I think the future entries for the NC could go up and maybe even be a slightly longer event.
I'll be camping out there with a few guys. Tent city, yup, wouldn't be a big event with out it. Hopefully the Losi camp won't lose their e-z-ups this time.

Underway,
Cold Fusion drivers are always welcome in Frank's pit. LOL
Seriously, I'm sure we'll have some extra room for ya. I'll be pitting in the same area with Frank and the guys. I'll be bringing an extra e-z-up just in case. I'm sure we'l have a table and chair to spare.
